Re: Futureshock or Royksopp?
 
Futureshock do also play live. Though they played the HMH in 2003 and the reviewer wasnt sure they were playing live either!

"Hierna speelt Futureshock live. Futureshock is een Engels producers -en DJ duo met progressive als basis en werd wel genoemd als opvolger van faithless.
Het duo draait samen aan de knoppen en speelt nummers van hun zeer aardige en afwisselende debuutalbum 'Phantom Theory'. Zoals steeds bij live-electronica is het niet duidelijk of er live wordt gespeeld of dat er alleen omstebeurt een nummer wordt aangezet. Veel nummers hebben precĂ*es dezelfde opbouw als op de CD, wat het laatste doet vermoeden. Het publiek is minder uitbundig dan bij de DJ's, maar Futureshock verdwijnt in applaus."

Leon: where are they playing? i might come along also. is it this?

I caught Royksopp's first UK show in 2 years at the Medicine Bar here in sunny Birmingham a couple of months ago, before the new album came out, and it was absolutely fucking mega. They're back next month (playing the academy) and I will be seeing them again. Fair enough maybe they don't seem to do much on stage, but when you think about it, who the fuck does (seem to anyway)? There is something about Royksopp's live performance that I find utterly hypnotic and the amount of energy that these 2 knob-twiddlers can inject into the crowd is phenomenal. I think they did Poor Leno and then carried the vocal on over Alpha Male and the room went utterly fucking spastic that night.

I caught 15 minutes of Futureshock supporting UW on the AHDO tour and can't say I'm that bothered about them. Royksopp are a more than safe bet though.

Hmmm yes Royksopp sure creates a lot of energy and gets you in this nice trancey vibe.
I'm thinking of going to both Sufjan Stevens and Futureshock now :p I'll have to see how much my money can buy.

Royksopp aren't a safe bet - they're pretty hit and miss for show quality. Futureshock were only supporting, any act's better in a club or headline setting.

Well I've caught them 3 times now and it was great each time. I can only go on my own experience. If nothing else, when I saw them recently, they were fuckign ace. And I saw Scissor Sisters embarass Zoot Woman as a support act before they hit paydirt.

Yeah but how many times does a support act do that versus the amount of times they don't?
